Suspicious login detection for Next.js
Add suspicious login detection to Next.js auth flows in minutes.
Add LoginLlama to Next.js in one call
Call LoginLlama from your Next.js login handler before you create the session. Send the email, IP, and user agent, then allow, challenge, or block based on the returned risk score.
// Install: npm install loginllama
import { LoginLlama } from 'loginllama';
import { NextRequest } from 'next/server';
const loginllama = new LoginLlama({
apiKey: process.env.LOGINLLAMA_API_KEY!
});
export async function POST(req: NextRequest) {
const { email, password } = await req.json();
// Check with LoginLlama BEFORE authenticating
const result = await loginllama.check(email, {
request: req // Auto-detects IP & User-Agent
});
if (result.risk_score > 5) {
return Response.json(
{ error: 'Suspicious login detected' },
{ status: 403 }
);
}
// Continue with your existing auth logic...
return Response.json({ success: true });

Next.js login security FAQ
How do I add suspicious login detection to Next.js?
Make a single POST request to https://loginllama.app/api/v1/login/check from your Next.js login handler before you create the session. Send the user's email, IP address, and user agent, and branch on the returned risk score.
Will LoginLlama slow down Next.js logins?
No. Risk scoring returns in under 100ms. If LoginLlama is unreachable the check throws an error, so catch it and let the Next.js login go ahead. An outage then never blocks a real user.
What does LoginLlama detect on Next.js logins?
New devices and browser fingerprints, impossible travel and login velocity, credential-stuffing bursts, and traffic from VPNs, proxies, TOR exit nodes, and high-risk IPs — each returned with a clear, human-readable reason code.
Does LoginLlama work with App Router, API routes, NextAuth?
Yes. LoginLlama runs at the login step itself, so it works alongside App Router, API routes, NextAuth and the rest of your Next.js stack without replacing your existing authentication provider.
Other integrations
LoginLlama works with the same single API call across every stack.
